Nope...

Don't really want one either. I happen to like the fact that I can swap components anytime I want without voiding a warranty or having to go to the Acne Bar to get the work done.

The main reason why I stay with PC.

I've bought two Apple products this year, an iPod, and now an iPad. Both are great products and we are really enjoying the iPad. That being said, it is overpriced for our use, I can't stand iTunes, and that combination has completely ruled out any Mac computers at our house. I have 2 desktop computers, one server, and two laptops. The price I paid for all of those machines is less than a 27" iMac!!! I know the Apple folks talk about how the price of Macs is higher because they include more features, but I don't care about have the crap they include in their machines anyway. So why pay for what I won't use?

I do find Apple innovative but, there isn't much for me to convert over other than it looking fancy on a desk. I only like the iPod, iPad,iPhone and that's it.

morning guys

I'd use the bamboo one first.

G'morning Harm. Hows things?

Ready set go!

This is the biggest sticking point when it comes to Me Vs Mac

You can **** and moan about the state of PCs all you want but when push comes to shove, at least you're **** about a machine that could at least be built the way you wanted with the components you wanted installed.

I had my last computer built the way I wanted and without all the excess bloatware that comes with one off hte shelf (even PC's).

If it ever snowed in San Diego, I don't know what this town would do. There isn't a snowplow to be had anywhere in the city. We get snow in our mountains, but in the 45 years I've lived here I've never seen it get below about 2500 feet...
